Reporting Standard ARS 330.2

Other Operating Income

Objective of this reporting standard

This reporting standard is made under section 13 of the Financial Sector (Collection of Data) Act 2001 and outlines the overall requirements for the provision of information to APRA relating to an authorised deposit-taking institution’s other operating income. It should be read in conjunction with the versions of Form ARF 330.2 Other Operating Income designated for a ‘Licensed ADI’ and ‘Consolidated Group’, and the associated instructions (all of which are attached and form part of this reporting standard).

Purpose

1. Data collected in Form ARF 330.2 Other Operating Income (Form ARF 330.2) is used by APRA for the purpose of prudential supervision. It may also be used by the Reserve Bank of Australia and the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

Application

2. This reporting standard applies to all authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADIs).

Information required

3. An ADI to which this reporting standard applies must provide APRA with the information required by the version of Form ARF 330.2 designated for a ‘Licensed ADI’ for each reporting period.

4. An ADI to which this reporting standard applies that is a highest parent entity in relation to a consolidated ADI group must also provide APRA the information required by the version of Form ARF 330.2 designated for a ‘Consolidated Group’ for each reporting period.

Form and method of submission

5. The information required by this reporting standard must be given to APRA in electronic form, using one of the electronic submission mechanisms provided by the ‘Direct to APRA’ (also known as ‘D2A’) application.

Note: the Direct to APRA application software may be obtained from APRA.

Reporting periods and due dates

6. Subject to paragraph 7, an ADI to which this reporting standard applies must provide the information required by this reporting standard for each quarter based on the financial year (within the meaning of the Corporations Act 2001) of the ADI.

7. APRA may, by notice in writing, change the reporting periods, or specified reporting periods, for a particular ADI, to require it to provide the information required by this reporting standard more frequently, or less frequently, having regard to:

(a) the particular circumstances of the ADI;

(b) the extent to which the information is required for the purposes of the prudential supervision of the ADI; and

(c) the requirements of the Reserve Bank of Australia or the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

8. The information required by this reporting standard must be provided to APRA in accordance with the table below. The right hand column of the table sets out the number of business days after the end of the reporting period to which the information relates within which information must be submitted to APRA by an ADI in the classes set out in the left hand column.

9. APRA may grant an ADI an extension of a due date in writing, in which case the new due date for the provision of the information will be the date on the notice of extension.

Quality control

10. The information provided by an ADI under this reporting standard (except for the information required under paragraph 4) must be the product of processes and controls that have been reviewed and tested by the external auditor of the ADI. AGS 1008 ‘Audit Implications of Prudential Reporting Requirements for Authorised Deposit-taking Institutions’, issued by the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board provides guidance on the scope and nature of the review and testing required from external auditors. This review and testing must be done on an annual basis or more frequently if necessary to enable the external auditor to form an opinion on the accuracy and reliability of the data.

11. All information provided by an ADI under this reporting standard must be subject to processes and controls developed by the ADI for the internal review and authorisation of that information. It is the responsibility of the board and senior management of the ADI to ensure that an appropriate set of policies and procedures for the authorisation of data submitted to APRA is in place.

Authorisation

12. If an ADI submits information under this reporting standard using the ‘Direct to APRA’ software, it will be necessary for an officer of the ADI to digitally sign, authorise and encrypt the relevant data. For this purpose, APRA’s certificate authority will issue ‘digital certificates’, for use with the software, to officers of the ADI who have authority from the ADI to transmit the data to APRA.

Minor alterations to forms and instructions

13. APRA may make minor variations to:

(a) a form that is part of this reporting standard, and the instructions to such a form, to correct technical, programming or logical errors, inconsistencies or anomalies; or

(b) the instructions to a form, to clarify their application to the form

without changing any substantive requirement in the form or instructions.

14. If APRA makes such a variation it must notify in writing each ADI that is required to report under this reporting standard.

Transitional

15. An ADI must report under the old reporting standard in respect of a transitional reporting period. For these purposes:

old reporting standard means the reporting standard revoked in the determination making this reporting standard (being the reporting standard which this reporting standard replaces).

transitional reporting period means a reporting period under the old reporting standard:

(a) which ended before the date of revocation of the old reporting standard; and

(b) in relation to which the ADI was required, under the old reporting standard, to report by a date on or after the date of revocation of the old reporting standard.

Note: for the avoidance of doubt, if an ADI was required to report under an old reporting standard, and the reporting documents were due before the date of revocation of the old reporting standard, the ADI is still required to provide the overdue reporting documents in accordance with the old reporting standard.

1. Where an ADI (or a member of its Level 2 consolidated group) participates in a securitisation that meets APRA’s operational requirements for regulatory capital relief under Prudential Standard APS 120 Securitisation (APS 120):

(a) special purpose vehicles (SPVs) holding securitised assets may be treated as non-consolidated independent third parties for regulatory reporting purposes, irrespective of whether the SPVs (or their assets) are consolidated for accounting purposes;

(b) the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the relevant SPVs may be excluded from the ADI’s reported amounts in APRA’s regulatory reporting returns; and

(c) the underlying exposures (i.e. the pool) under such a securitisation may be excluded from the calculation of the ADI’s regulatory capital (refer to APS 120). However, the ADI must still hold regulatory capital for the securitisation exposures[2] that it retains or acquires and such exposures are to be reported in Form ARF 120.0 Standardised – Securitisation or Forms ARF 120.1A to ARF 120.1C IRB – Securitisation (as appropriate). The RWA relating to such securitisation exposures must also be reported in Form ARF 110.0 Capital Adequacy (ARF 110.0).

2. Where an ADI (or a member of its Level 2 consolidated group) participates in a securitisation that does not meet APRA’s operational requirements for regulatory capital relief under APS 120, or the ADI elects to treat the securitised assets as on-balance sheet assets under Prudential Standard APS 112 Capital Adequacy: Standardised Approach to Credit Risk or Prudential Standard APS 113 Capital Adequacy: Internal Ratings-based Approach to Credit Risk, such exposures are to be reported as on-balance sheet assets in APRA’s regulatory reporting returns. In addition, these exposures must also be reported as a part of the ADI’s total securitised assets within Form ARF 120.2 Securitisation – Supplementary Items.

Consolidated ADI group

This refers to the global operations of the ADI and all its controlled entities (where relevant), consolidated in accordance with Australian accounting standards (AASB 127 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements (AASB 127) and AASB 3 Business Combinations (AASB 3)).

‘Controlled entity’ (subsidiary), ‘parent entity’

These terms are defined in accordance with AASB 127 and AASB 3.

The basis of consolidation required in this form is in accordance with the accounting consolidated group. The accounting consolidated group is to be determined in accordance with the requirements of the Australian accounting standards, notably AASB 127.and AASB 3.

Exclude from the accounting consolidated group SPVs whose assets have satisfied the clean sale requirements set down in APS 120 (refer to Securitisation deconsolidation principle).

Reporting period

The form is to be completed as at the last day of the stated reporting quarter on a financial year-to-date basis of the ADI. Australian-owned banks, foreign subsidiary banks, branches of foreign banks and other ADIs should submit the completed form to APRA within 25 business days after the end of the relevant reporting quarter. Credit Unions, Cairns Penny Savings & Loans Limited, Building Societies and SCCIs should submit the completed form to APRA within 15 business days after the end of the relevant reporting quarter.

Unit of measurement

Amounts denominated in foreign currency are to be converted to AUD in accordance with AASB 121 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates (AASB 121).

The general requirements of AASB 121 for translation are:

1. foreign currency monetary items outstanding at the reporting date must be translated at the spot rate at the reporting date;[3]
2. foreign currency non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency must be translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction;[4]
3. foreign currency non-monetary items that are measured at fair value will be translated at the exchange rate at the date when fair value was determined.

Transactions arising under foreign currency derivative contracts at the reporting date must be prepared in accordance with AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (AASB 139). However, those foreign currency derivatives that are not within the scope of AASB 139 (e.g. some foreign currency derivatives that are embedded in other contracts) remain within the scope of AASB 121.

For APRA purposes equity items must be translated using the foreign currency exchange rate at the date of investment or acquisition. Post acquisition changes in equity are required to be translated on the date of the movement.

As foreign currency derivatives are measured at fair value, the currency derivative contracts are translated at the spot rate at the reporting date.

Exchange differences should be recognised in profit and loss in the period which they arise. For foreign currency derivatives, the exchange differences would be recognised immediately in profit and loss if the hedging instrument is a fair value hedge. For derivatives used in a cash flow hedge, the exchange differences should be recognised directly in equity.

The ineffective portion of the exchange differences in all hedges would be recognised in profit and loss; and

4. translation of financial reports of foreign operations.

A foreign operation is defined in AASB 121 as meaning an entity that is a subsidiary, associate, joint venture or branch of a reporting entity, the activities of which are based or conducted in a country or currency other than those of the reporting entity.

• Exchange differences relating to foreign currency monetary items that form part of the net investment of an entity in a foreign operation, must be recognised as a separate component of equity.
• Translation of financial reports should otherwise follow the requirements in AASB 121.
